The mother was admitted to a Wichita hospital with severe hemorrhaging earlier Wednesday, Lt. Doug Nolte said. Medical staff who were concerned with the unexplained bleeding questioned the teen, who admitted giving birth the previous week, he said.

The 17-year-old then said she took the infant to the mall and placed her in the trash bin, Nolte said. Police say they know when the baby was born but are not releasing her birth date at this time.
